Storytime

I can write a story with a simple linear sequence using:

past simple

past continuous

past perfect

past continuous

past simple

past perfect

to set the scene

to describe the main events

to show that 1 past event happened b4 another

Extreme sports - have you tried any of these?

Read

'There's a first time for everything!'

& do ex 3, 5, 6 & 8 alone or

in pairs

past simple

= main events

past continuous

= set the scene

past perfect

= 1 past action before another past action

do exercise 7 & 9 alone

Today's plan

Expectations

• use English as much as possible - mistakes? No problem! 
• be active and participate in the class
• laptops half-closed when not in use = when I'm explaining things
  
• listen to the person who has the floor
• got a question? -> raise your hand
• didn't finish work in class? = homework! 

Your turn

First, do exercises 7 & 9 in pairs

Then ex 10 - write in a word doc or on paper

If you want to write a story about trying something different than a sport, that's fine with me :)

Can you write a story with a beginning/middle/end & using the past tenses?

1. Yes & I don't need feedback
2. Yes, but I want you to look at my writing
3. I need more time to write it
4. No, I don't even know how to start

Reflect

1. yes, I don't need feedback -> do you want to practice more? go to MEL or just follow the same steps, but write about a different event/adventure

2. yes, but give me feedback -> send it to me via Magister & do the MEL writing activities

3. I need more time -> come to a flex to finish & practice on MEL

4. No... -> come to a flex and we'll figure it out :)
